Are you prepared for what it really means to act as an Executor?
Many lawyers are asked—often by close friends or family—to take on the role of Executor. While the title may sound straightforward, the responsibilities, risks, and time commitments involved are frequently underestimated. WGCC is pleased to invite members to a 60‑minute virtual Masterclass focused on the practical realities of Executor responsibilities, delivered by an experienced professional who works in this space every day.
Cheryl Maloney is a Certified Executor Advisor with extensive, hands‑on experience helping families and their Executors plan for the successful administration of their estates. Her work focuses on real‑world challenges, risks, and personal liability issues Executors face—particularly those that are often overlooked at the outset. This Masterclass draws on Cheryl’s practical experience rather than legal theory, making it highly relevant for lawyers who act (or may be asked to act) as Executors in their personal or professional lives.
What You’ll Learn // This Masterclass will provide a practical, experience‑based overview of:
The core responsibilities and obligations of an Executor
Common risk areas and sources of personal liability
What Executors often don’t anticipate until they are already in the role
Practical steps to prepare yourself—or your chosen Executor—for success
The session is designed to be relevant both professionally and personally, with concrete insights participants can apply immediately.
